Andrew's deposition discusses their retirement.
Actually it wouldnt surprise me at all if there was money flowing to them for their work on these accounts.
Let's be realistic however-the attorneys are doing most of the work. What more could they possibly be doing other than paying a few bills and having a money manager manage some trusts? The estate is supposed to be pretty much intact although it has been moved around some. The bulk of the income appears to be being eaten up by attorneys fees.

Quite a while back, Gitana posted links to a couple Los Angeles Times stories about a common form of elder abuse where someone not even necessarily related to the person gets conservatorship over them and then empties their bank accounts in various ways, including paying themselves a generous salary for essentially paying a few bills each month. And how the courts have been rubberstamping these transactions.
You or I may think that paying a few bills each month is worth maybe $25/month (stretching hard to make it into semi-skilled labour that takes up an hour). Someone with a different ethical system may see it as worth a couple thousand a month.
